        "content": "<p>Jakarta \u2014 PT Agrinas Pangan Nusantara will procure three-wheeled\nmotorcycles to support the operational needs of Merah Putih Village and\nKelurahan Cooperatives, with a portion of the procurement sourced\nthrough imports.<\/p>\n<p>Joao Angelo De Sousa Mota, Chief Executive Director of PT Agrinas\nPangan Nusantara, stated that the imports are necessary because domestic\nmanufacturers cannot fulfil all of Agrinas\u2019 demand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe three-wheeled motorcycles total 160,000 units. We have already\nplaced orders with all domestic producers,\u201d he said on Friday (27\nFebruary 2026).<\/p>\n<p>He acknowledged that the company had contacted all three-wheeled\nmotorcycle manufacturers operating in Indonesia. However, the\noverwhelming order volume has stretched local production lines to\ncapacity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cViar, Kaisar, and Ace, plus TVS at the front, they are also unable\nto produce in such large quantities. For the remainder, we must order\nfrom abroad and import out of necessity, because local producers can no\nlonger handle the volume,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Joao did not provide further details regarding the proportion of\nthree-wheeled motorcycles sourced domestically versus through\nimports.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the procurement of commercial vehicles from India that has\nbeen the subject of public discussion, Joao explained that the total\nnumber of vehicles ordered is 160,000 units, comprising 80,000\nfour-by-four pickup trucks and 80,000 light trucks.<\/p>\n<p>The contract with the Indian manufacturer covers a total of 105,000\nunits. Mahindra will supply 35,000 Scorpio Pick-Up units, whilst the\nremaining 70,000 units come from Tata Motors, comprising 35,000 Yodha\nPick-Up units and 35,000 Ultra T.7 Light Truck units.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCurrently, 200 units have arrived, and by the end of the month,\n1,200 units will have arrived,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The remaining vehicles come from manufacturers that already have\nassembly facilities in Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo 20,600 units from Mitsubishi, 13,200 from Foton, 10,000 from\nHino, and 900 from Isuzu \u2014 these we have already ordered,\u201d he\nconcluded.<\/p>",
